Yes, this is the best fix - let the framework handle things properly.
We'll need a second set of operations and to select which to use based
on having type information but that's fine.

We need a separate struct as otherwise if there's multiple devices with
regmap irq_chip implementations then they'll collide with each other but
otherwise I like this approach (or we could copy the irq_chip struct
when registering and then modify which is going to scale a bit better -
you're probably right that we need to do the same thing for the wake
configuration. I'll still look at applying your patch as a temporary
fix though.
